An implicit relevance feedback method for CBIR with real-time eye tracking

Relevance feedback is an efficient approach to improve the performance of content-based image retrieval systems, and implicit relevance feedback approaches, which gather users’ feedback by biometric devices (e.g. eye tracker), have extensively investigated in recent years. This paper proposes a novel image retrieval system with implicit relevance feedback, named eye tracking based relevance feedback system (ETRFs). ETRFs is composed of three main modules: image retrieval subsystem based on bag-of-word architecture; user relevance assessment that implicitly acquires relevant images with the help of a modern eye tracker; and relevance feedback module that applies a weighted query expansion method to fuse users’ relevance feedback. ETRFs is implemented online and real-time, which makes it remarkably distinguish from other offline systems. Ten subjects participate our experiments on the dataset of Oxford buildings and UKBench. The experimental results demonstrate that ETRFs achieves notable improvement for image retrieval performance.

Relevance Feedback and Learning in Content-Based Image Search

A major bottleneck in content-based image retrieval (CBIR) systems or search engines is the large gap between low-level image features used to index images and high-level semantic contents of images. One solution to this bottleneck is to apply relevance feedback to refine the query or similarity measures in image search process. In this paper, we first address the key issues involved in relevance feedback of CBIR systems and present a brief overview of a set of commonly used relevance feedback algorithms. Almost all of the previously proposed methods fall well into such framework. We present a framework of relevance feedback and semantic learning in CBIR. In this framework, low-level features and keyword annotations are integrated in image retrieval and in feedback processes to improve the retrieval performance. We have also extended framework to a content-based web image search engine in which hosting web pages are used to collect relevant annotations for images and users' feedback logs are used to refine annotations. A prototype system has developed to evaluate our proposed schemes, and our experimental results indicated that our approach outperforms traditional CBIR system and relevance feedback approaches.     

A unified log-based relevance feedback scheme for image retrieval

Relevance feedback has emerged as a powerful tool to boost the retrieval performance in content-based image retrieval (CBIR). In the past, most research efforts in this field have focused on designing effective algorithms for traditional relevance feedback. Given that a CBIR system can collect and store users' relevance feedback information in a history log, an image retrieval system should be able to take advantage of the log data of users' feedback to enhance its retrieval performance. In this paper, we propose a unified framework for log-based relevance feedback that integrates the log of feedback data into the traditional relevance feedback schemes to learn effectively the correlation between low-level image features and high-level concepts. Given the error-prone nature of log data, we present a novel learning technique, named soft label support vector machine, to tackle the noisy data problem. Extensive experiments are designed and conducted to evaluate the proposed algorithms based on the COREL image data set. The promising experimental results validate the effectiveness of our log-based relevance feedback scheme empirically.

Integrated probability function and its application to content-based image retrieval by relevance feedback

In the last few years, we have seen an upsurge of interest in content-based image retrieval (CBIR)—the selection of images from a collection via features extracted from images themselves. Often, a single image attribute may not have enough discriminative information for successful retrieval. On the other hand when multiple features are used, it is hard to determine the suitable weighing factors for various features for optimal retrieval. In this paper, we present a relevance feedback framework with Integrated Probability Function (IPF) which combines multiple features for optimal retrieval. The IPF is based on a new posterior probability estimator and a novel weight updating approach. We perform experiments on 1400 monochromatic trademark images have been performed. The proposed IPF is shown to be more effective and efficient to retrieve deformed trademark images than the commonly used integrated dissimilarity function. The new posterior probability estimator is shown to be generally better than the existing one. The proposed novel weight updating approach by relevance feedback is shown to be better than both the existing scoring approach and the existing ratio approach. In experiments, 95% of the targets are ranked at the top five positions. By two iterations of relevance feedback, retrieval performance can be improved from 75% to over 95%. The IPF and its relevance feedback framework proposed in this paper can be effectively and efficiently used in content-based image retrieval.

A new relevance feedback technique for iconic image retrieval based on spatial relationships

Due to the popularity of Internet and the growing demand of image access, the volume of image databases is exploding. Hence, we need a more efficient and effective image searching technology. Relevance feedback technique has been popularly used with content-based image retrieval (CBIR) to improve the precision performance, however, it has never been used with the retrieval systems based on spatial relationships. Hence, we propose a new relevance feedback framework to deal with spatial relationships represented by a specific data structure, called the 2D B_e-string. The notions of relevance estimation and query reformulation are embodied in our method to exploit the relevance knowledge. The irrelevance information is collected in an irrelevant set to rule out undesired pictures and to expedite the convergence speed of relevance feedback. Our system not only handles picture-based relevance feedback, but also deals with region-based feedback mechanism, such that the efficacy and effectiveness of our retrieval system are both satisfactory.
